“Newfies” are known for being “nanny dogs,” but even at a year and full grown, this Newfoundland/Chow mix Porter’s more bouncing boy than babysitter; his white grin peaks out of his dense black and white coat every second; never was a youngster more eager to please, or more capable. Porter was found stray in Hodges, he’s 60 lbs. of devoted play and stunningly adorable; we’ve already taught him to “sit” and “lie down” for a treat, and we recommend sturdy kids to match his prance-caper-cavort tranquility — your yard will never witness a happier, or more loving, scene. Porter’s the go-to boy in his playgroup, his elated outlook extends to canine friends too, and he’s fine with a harness and leash, showing him off is a given. We invite you to count the seconds ’til Porter makes you laugh; feel your own tender smile emerge the moment you meet your joyful new son.

Maybe she’s a sport fisherman like her ancestors’ famous owner, but our six-toed “Hemingway cat” KC loves to paddle her magnificent mitts in her water bowl; she has the gentlest, cleanest (and most rudder-like) paws between here and Key West, and her personality’s as distinctively fun as her drinking habits. KC’s four years old, a roll on her back, rub-purr-thrilled to see you, inside-outside kind of friend, with a pretty brown face and a soft tiger body; she tolerates other pets patiently, but her focus is on excitingly human YOU. She’ll pursue you avidly through all your life’s deep seas; an everyday companion who never stops prizing you. Feel how flattering it is to be someone’s big game, and how lovely it is to be forever lured by a six-toed fisher-cat called KC.

K.C. is currently available at Petsmart located at 201 Hospitality Blvd. in Greenwood.

He’s a boxer/shepherd too calm to box and a strapping southern boy too polite to be anything but house trained. At 4 years old Bubba’s disposition’s as grand as his strong, sculpted body — a tug of war with his favorite rope toy’s as close as he comes to conflict; he’ll roll on his back for a delicious belly rub, give an XL size kiss, then gallop away just to show off and come back — all without bumping you — he understands his size and behaves accordingly. “Plays well with others” is a Bubba-understatement; he enjoys dogs pals and is respectfully adoring of kids, his leash-walking’s a thing of beauty, and he loves to learn, he’s already been taught him to “sit” and “lie down.” Bubba’s niceness knows no bounds but a fence won’t hold him if he feels neglected; he sees himself as a cherished member of your family, an inside-outside son who’ll quietly remind you to keep your feet off the coffee table. Meet your new forever-unflappable friend and see how fun good manners can be; Bubba’s here to have and to hold, you won’t take home a finer prize..

In golf lingo “mulligan” means a do-over, but no creative second chance is needed for this pristinely beautiful youth; at 11 months our Mulligan’s half shy, half lover-boy and 100% breathtaking, all in his own tender way. Mulligan was turned in because his owner had “too many animals;” he’ll hesitate only for a second before showing you that beneath his forever-small frame his affection’s as dreamily abundant as his long downy coat. Mulligan’s gentle, intelligent, appreciative, and fine with other pets — the gift of a lifetime for your kids or your opportunity to return the rarefied warmth of a porcelain-perfect cat. See that the first time’s a charm when it comes to meeting Mulligan, and don’t even bother to hold onto your heart — it’s already his.

Come meet him and you’ll see that he’s smart and silly, playful and prankish, and yes, he’s dignified too. Nacho is a Whippet mix friend in the making, he’s 10 months young and full of energy. He would be a great addition to a family with kids or adults who enjoy an active lifestyle he can share. (He loves to go on walks!) Whippets are know to grow up to be “couch potatoes” and make excellent house dogs; so after these early teen years, he will enjoy watching TV with you as much as running around the yard playing.
